KStars Wiki! Problem Solving

I think it would be great for editors to help organize the content, but I
think at this point we should err on the side of allowing content, before
we worry about having too much.

I checked and right now, I think only developers can add content -- that
is, I asked Jo (@El Corazon) to try and add something. He said he was able
to view the wiki, but he was not able to make any additions/changes.

Should we try opening it up if possible?
Should we keep control over the editing but try and get a dozen volunteers
from the forum (user experts) and grant them permission to add to the wiki?

I think our knowledgeable users could do a great job with this.
